I would say nute burn. If in veg still I would flush plant real good.lot of good videos. Out their . I cut my nutes down to 1/3 what the supplier says and every other watering usually 1 time a week. Works good for mine.Also depends on soil you use I did an experiment this grow and did two in my coast of main and 1 in the cheap miracle grow. Yes thier add is correct. Plant grew twice as big. Twice as lanky. But the buds are 1/10 the size of the other two in coast of main and boy does that miracle grow burn this plant pretty bad. I can say I have a hard time on the tips not getting the tips a little bit burnt when late in flower but again I don’t flush and have the big money to test ppm and stuff. Am new as well. So make sure getting good organic soil if doing soil. Cheap dirt doesn’t help any

I’m using the royal gold basement mix heard it was really good soil and I did add some botanicare pure blend pro for the nutrients I was using 1 tablesoon to a half gallon of water but I was only doing 1/2 tablespoon to half gallon and she was fine so I’ll go back to that for sure after a good flush I appreciate that man

Would cut back to half per gln for a bit

Yeah I think that’s what I’ll do I thought they might have been ready for some more nutrients but didn’t really think that this soil has a bunch already shoulda just sat and thought for a second

I wouldn't do more than 1/4 strength for nutes at that stage if you even need any. Looks like nute burn to me. Just water, don't feed nutrients until your plants show you that they need it.

But more than that, check your PH. Are you checking the PH when watering? Are you checking the PH of the soil? I'm in my first grow and my biggest issue has been PH. My tap water is 7.5+ so over time without checking it, my soil went to 7+ and then I ended up with nutrient lockout. Dealing with a phosphorous deficiency now and ended up having to use low PH water to get things back in balance. So check your PH.

Damn that could explain a lot then too using regular tap water hmmm maybe thinking of switching it up to RO water and just make my own ph level for watering? Think that’d work

That shit has coco, doubt youre overwatering. Could be nute burn most likely. With coco treat it like hydro. Use RO water and use 1/10 strength but add nutes daily. Maybe even 1/15 depending how hot that shit is. I just glanced it. Try Roots Organics. I use the Lush version, but its fire. Anyway, try just watering it normal for a few days. Are your nutes and shit organic?

You newbies should be growing in coco,easily the easiest lol.Plenty of info on it.Built just for new growers.

It's a magnesium deficiency I'd say. Get some Epsom salts, mix it 1 teaspoon to 2 gallons of water, spray your plants at lights off, and watch them green up in about a day or 2.

Its pointless but not hurting your plant.

Just wanted to get my nodes growing a little more close together

That has to do with light intensity. I use a lux meter off my phone. Prolly not accurate to a tee but it works for me. 20000 luxs will make what looks like your plants stage is at do fine. Maybe 25000

Cannabis uses O2 only during it's 'sleep' cycle. Although it CAN run 24/7 it does better with a sleep cycle.

Lots of new growers here. Me too. My tap water is PH 8.2 and 120ppm. I PH down to around 5.8 (DWC grow). Using RO water I thought had more to do with PPM, rather than PH?
Good luck one and all.

Well the PH effects the soil more than the plant with coco and soil n shit. If the PH isnt right, the plant cant uptake the nutrients even if their present. Something to do with bugs fucking idk.

I meant that the reasoning behind using RO water was that the tap water had too many ppm. Some cities the water has too many bad bits in it. Only way to deal with it is to filter and or RO. PH can always be adjusted.

Thats what you meant by part per million, sorry im dumb. I try to avoid using ph up or down but I run organics. Ill prolly use it when I try this aeroponics thing for a few clones.

Don't quote me but I am sure there are organic versions of pH+-. Acids and alkalines.
Yeah, the jargon I am still getting my head around.. I know wtf!
